Go: I’m 50-50 against the AI

Chapter 268 267. Return to the old path

“Cheers, let us congratulate Ying Jie for becoming the youngest Go World Series finalist in China, no, in the world.

15 years old, think about what we were doing when we were 15 years old? My face turns red just thinking about it. Today's children are just amazing, each one is better than the other.

Xia Hua, Fan Ruoyu, Xiao Xiao, you guys have to work hard and come back with a few more world championships.

Ying Jie is in the 7th dan, but he should be promoted to Ying Jie in the 9th dan soon. We will wait until we win the world championship. Let’s congratulate him in advance. "

As soon as Ying Jie returned, he was dragged to a celebration banquet by everyone in the Chess Academy.

Mr. Nie directly acted as host, and Quanjude set up a few tables.

The older generation has a special liking for this time-honored brand. Although it is expensive, it is worth it in their opinion.

Don't talk about anything else, it's just a face.

And the most important thing is that Mr. Nie is extremely happy today.

Although everyone knows it, everyone thinks that Ying Jie will definitely win a world championship this year.

But the moment Ying Jie actually reached the finals of the World Series, everyone was extremely excited.

Potential and realizing potential are completely different things.

But now, Ying Jie has already fulfilled half of his promise.

Moreover, the final of the World Series that Ying Jie entered was none other than the Ying's Cup.

This game has absolutely extraordinary significance for Mr. Nie.

"Although the possibility of winning the final is very high, don't take it lightly."

Nie Laoyu patted Ying Jie sincerely. It was also the Ying's Cup finals that year, and he capsized in the gutter.

This was the first time this happened, and he was naturally very afraid that it would happen again to the next generation.

After all, in everyone's eyes, he was a top-notch player back then. Although the Korean guy was senior, his strength was obviously much worse.

But in such a situation where he could not fail, Mr. Nie just missed the world championship in his life.

"Don't worry, I will definitely win."

Ying Jie nodded when he heard this. Although he felt that Park Zhenghuan's strength was no longer as good as Cui Ze's, and the final was not necessarily as difficult as the semi-finals, he still needed to prepare.

After all, winning 3:2 is completely different from winning 3:0.

If you want to hit, hit hard.

Mr. Nie nodded happily when he heard this: "But recently I still focus on the Asian Games. After all, it will start next month."

It is now August 2010, and the Asian Games will officially begin next month in September.

Go is the first event to be included in the Asian Games, and it is also a game proposed by our own family. Naturally, everyone is looking forward to it.

No matter what, I have to get a gold medal back.

Otherwise, I won’t become someone else’s wedding dress.

Ying Jie had just come back two days ago and was taken directly to have his blood taken for a physical examination. The procedures for a sports event of this level like the Asian Games can be said to be very strict to ensure that every player is fine.

There will be other related checks soon to prevent any contestants who do not meet the conditions.

The chess academy is about to start its last training camp before the Asian Games.

During this period of time, there were basically no world competitions, and all major competitions basically gave way to the Asian Games by default.

After all, this is a real national event.

Of course, this excludes stage races and ordinary professional competitions, because the contestants have nothing to do with the Asian Games.

Speaking of July and August, one of the more important competitions for Go is the fixed-stage competition.

Some time ago, the new year's qualifying competition also came to an end. Nan Ke, the kid that Ying Jie was more interested in, failed to become a professional chess player by two spots, and unfortunately failed to make the cut.

But it is normal. It can be said that there are very few people who become professional chess players after participating in the first stage competition without repeating a year.

Ying Jie, the current top chess player, knows that only he and Guang Yin are like this.

Others are more or less repeated, but only for about two years at most.

It’s impossible for anyone to repeat the course for eight years.

Who can repeat eight years of study?

"By the way, I have some news for you, so prepare yourself in advance."

Mr. Nie suddenly said at this time.

Ying Jie was a little confused when he heard this. What's the news? Is it possible that he is planning to give himself a wild card in some world competition?

However, the second half of the year is basically a competition between Japan and South Korea. It is basically impossible to get them to give me a wild card.

Just like in the World Series like China, it is absolutely impossible to give Gao Yongxia a wild card.

“The Yingshi Cup final has actually set a specific date, including the location of the final.

But this time it may be more traveling back and forth, not within the country. "

"ah?"

You can't go to South Korea to compete, right?

Want me to slap someone in the face at their home?

"This final will be held in Singapore, the Lion City."

After hearing this, everyone fell silent for a moment.

Because this location is a turning point for Go between China and South Korea.

It is also the place where the first final of the Ying's Cup ended.

The first three games of the first Yingshi Cup were held in Hangzhou and Ningbo, Zhejiang, with Mr. Nie leading 2:1.

However, the Korean side strongly requested that the venue of the competition be changed to South Korea, and Mr. Ying, the sponsor of the competition, was not satisfied with the organization of the competition in South Korea and wanted to move it to Wanwan.

But the matter got stuck on Mr. Nie's status as a party member. The Bayan authorities refused to let Nie enter the country. Finally, after negotiation, it was decided to move to Singapore to fight again in four months.

Later, due to Mr. Nie's excessive optimism, coupled with organizational errors and mistakes in plane transfer, he caught a cold before the game and lost the key game of the fourth game.

In the fifth game, Mr. Nie's mentality collapsed and he was defeated.

This game not only gave up the Ying's Cup and lost 400,000 US dollars, but also enabled the rise of Korean Go.

It can be said that this was the most unforgettable defeat in Mr. Nie's life.

The reason for placing it in Singapore is obvious. As a sponsor, Ying's Group wants to wash away the shame of the first edition. It has to get up from where it fell.

Although the fifth championship was won by China, before the competition, no one thought that Guangyin 9th Dan could win the championship 100%.

If you do this, you will be slapped in the face when the time comes, and the gain will outweigh the loss.

But this time it's different.

Everyone believes that Ying Jie's probability of winning is at least 90%.

Originally they wanted to proceed in the order of the first competition.

The first three games were originally held in Hangzhou and Ningbo in the first round, but because the organizers were worried that Ying Jie would defeat his opponent 3-0, Park Zhenghuan would not be able to survive the fourth game in Singapore, so they simply moved the venue to Singapore. held.

To a certain extent, this is a return to the past.

Although the people are different, it is still a competition between China and South Korea.

It's just that the first player from China is still the first player from China, and the first player from South Korea was eliminated in the first round. No, he was eliminated in the second round.

Having said this, Ying Jie nodded: "I will win this final."

Because the opponent is not Gao Yongxia, perhaps this game cannot prove that Ying Jie has truly become the number one player in the world.

But he would prove a point.

Chinese and Korean Go.

Offense and defense have changed.

PS: Chapter 6 is over. It will be updated tomorrow night and the Asian Games will begin.
